which child sidekicks did not suck !!!
not sure if this is supposed to be in movie talk .. but most movies are on DVD anyway ..
I am just watching "temple of doom" and I am amazed how much Short Round does NOT suck .. he is a fun child side kick .. serious, but yet not a grown up in a small body .. and I cannot come up with anything comparible ..
I also wonder if this actor has been considered for IJ4 .. and what else he did (i will hit the IMDB as soon as I have posted that )
so .. any other examples ??

Best child sidekick of all-time!

As well as the kid from "The Mummy Returns" ...

You probably should change the title to reflect which child sidekicks did suck, I honestly can't think of any that didn't.

Another vote for Jonathan Ke Quan as Short Round.

Haley Joel Osmet did a fine job in Sixth Sense and A.I. ... although i guess he wouldn't be considered a side kick. The kid in Unbreakable annoyed the hell outta me... same with Gladiator.
